Winter Illumination at Each Location

All photos are conceptual images.

Gotemba Premium Outlets (Gotemba, Shizuoka)

Under the theme "SNOW FANTASIA - A Snow Story Spun by Light," the grounds are divided into three areas that create fantastical worlds of falling snow, a silver landscape and a deep snowy forest. The main attraction is a real fir tree about 7 m tall, decorated with lights that change when someone stands on the stage and lights that flicker like candles. The ornaments are made of recyclable paper art, which is gentle on the environment. Visitors can enjoy a heartwarming time woven from light and snow.

Sano Premium Outlets (Sano, Tochigi)

The theme is "Bubbles of Light." Small grains of light gather to wrap the whole facility in a bubble-like glow. Glittering gold-centered illuminations add to the excitement of shopping at the outlet. This year, in addition to a gate-shaped tree about 6 m tall, a light display using a gobo projector that casts winter-themed illustrations also appears, to be enjoyed by children and adults alike. On Sunday, November 8, from 6:00 PM to 6:30 PM, the Sano City brand character "Sanomaru" is scheduled to visit for a greeting session together with the illumination.

Ami Premium Outlets (Ami, Ibaraki)

A "Home Christmas," like a scene from an overseas film, makes its appearance. Wrapped in soft lights, the space is a heartwarming one that feels like going back to childhood.

Near the center of the facility, a photo spot inspired by the front porch of a house during the Christmas season is set up. Beyond it lies a world that feels like being invited to a home party, where visitors can feel the warmth and special time of Christmas spent with loved ones.

Shisui Premium Outlets (Shisui, Chiba)

The theme is "The Premium Winter," inspired by the glamorous holiday season in America. Sparkles in a variety of colors turn a visit into a special memory.

Champagne-gold light wraps the entire facility, creating a glamorous world in which the facility itself seems to be one big gift. In the Galleria, a real fir Christmas tree about 7 m tall and a symbolic decoration with a large ribbon appear. Together with light pouring down from the ceiling, they create a photogenic space.

With the theme "A Journey Guided by Holy Light - Holy Light Voyage," the outlet creates a refined and glamorous space based on warm, sparkling champagne gold. The book-shaped object that serves as the main photo spot is designed around the motif of an "invitation to a special time," a gift from Toki Premium Outlets to its visitors. Each area has a different color scheme, and about 47,000 lights of many colors express the unique world of each area. Visitors can enjoy the many faces of light as they stroll around the grounds.

Tosu Premium Outlets (Tosu, Saga)

A photo spot with gift boxes appears around a Christmas tree about 5 m tall. About 30,000 gold-based lights brighten the facility, creating a space where the time spent there is itself a special gift for visitors.
